Madibaz return to Varsity Cup with a mission
Captain Luyolo Dapula says the FNB Madibaz are determined to fight for a top-six place in what he expects to be a testing Varsity Cup tournament this year.
The Nelson Mandela University outfit return to the top flight after two years in the Varsity Shield wilderness when they meet North-West University in their opening match on April 5.
Besides the tough nature of the competition, Dapula said there would also be the issue of a short turnaround between matches as the fixtures will be played in three blocks of three matches, with each block spread over seven to nine days.
